Chris Evans has stepped down from presenting Top Gear after poor viewing figures.

The final episode of Top Gear's new season after Chris Evans replaced Jeremy Clarkson aired last night, and early viewing figures suggest the numbers were a record low for the programme. Sunday's programme had an audience of just 1.9 million, half of what The Antiques Roadshow achieved.
